It is a bit puzzling to me why they would erect such a small easily breached or topped fence if the goal is to prevent unauthorized access/vandalism/littering etc when the tower is not occupied. The news article in the "Pine Barrens Tribune" indicated they spent $200 (?). This appears to be more...

By any chance did you happen to notice if any mitigation was performed to prevent future flooding/erosion issues? I realize its been filled and graded but any culverts added or any other noticeable additions in the areas that had been previously flooded out?

Although I have never run into "trouble" it always good to practice common sense, use your wits and act prudently. The two legged animal is always a concern but in general during daylight hours the folks you might run into while hiking/biking etc are usually just like you and I...good folks...

Hopefully in addition to a reactive approach of filling and grading they are also proactively installing culverts or other features to prevent the five very large and deep mudholes from reforming on East Stokes Road in the area between Hampton road and the railroad tracks.

That driver sure made the wrong decision. Glad the Officer was not seriously injured.

You mentioned Old Bridge as your put in location...any chance of a map pin for location? Sounds like quite an adventure with all the blow downs.

I agree...............however my comment was in reference to Federal funds being allocated to the State for purchasing tracts of land (via the Green Acres fund) from Private sellers.

It's tempting to write a Pinelands Preserve petition - not through Change.org :) for more Federal and State funds to be allocated for additional Park Police, fire fighting support, road maintenance, historic structure rehabilitation, and purchase of land from willing private sellers. $10 million...

I am surprised that this conversation is ongoing as there is zero chance of the Pine Barrens becoming a National Park. Nancy Wittenbergs statement was correct that the last chance for the PB to be a national Park was at the time of the designation of the Pine Barrens as a Federal Reserve or...

And don't feed the seagulls in Ocean City : Penalties for feeding the “emboldened birds” will include fines as high as $500 and jail time for up to 90 days...

Beware of solo vehicle travelling any sand roads in the Pines after heavy rainstorms (even several days later in some cases). Even major thorofares can have significant water fording and deep puddle crossing obstacles. The minor drought we had in early Summer provided great stock vehicle access...

Flash Flood Warning for Camden County and part of Burlington County

Fantastic!

By any chance have you been able to photograph any of the Sea Turtles in New Jersey? I would love to see that.....I participated in "turtle walks" when I lived in Ponte Vedra Beach, FL...seeing the enormous burrows they created to lay eggs and dozens of baby turtle tracks making there way...

You may want to try the "maps" feature on this site and/or Google Earth for the Blue Hole location and plot your trip accordingly...

Gorgeous shot! I hiked the Upper Batsto river today just below Hampton bridge...water level is very low. Water is surprisingly cool, I will wear hip waders next time.
